, rx matter of course—because it was a
matter of eeononiy and saving—the two com
panies determined to unite 'these interests by
amalganition. The terms were that it the i
I.;eliatiOn' Valley stockholders should receive
itOadin,g'steeli in exchange for what they hold.
It ws,,thully, agreed to give them Reading
?tiocit at, par, after the Ist July,-1858, in ex
change.for their Lebanon Valley stock, with..
out partielpation in dividends until January,_
1859. 2, - At the meeting of the - stockholders,
held at Reading' on Monday, the question of
amalgamation was carried by over twelve
thousand vote's, we believe, over about two
Hundred - and twenty, and the Reading Railroad
shareholders,(who have a great pecuniary in
terest,in, the matter) did not vote at all. In
truth; the Lebanon-Valley Railroad must very
gladly have agreed to place itself; by adoption,
as- trait •14 line well constructed - and well
4184d:dished.
AnOSsentiiil element 1u widertakings of this
skirt,— 1E1 . '31 business undertakingi—is a the'
almighty dollar." A great question is—a How
it, to pay ?" The Philadelphia and Reading
Railroad nearly doubles itself by this amalga

Lebanon, amounts to fifty-four miles, officially
,reported to possess a good gradients and light

'to,Pledadelphia ; add In the tame way will, doubt,
lissi,goby it to join the Pennsylvania cars at Bar

, cihoke of routes to Philadelphia, and they will pro
bably patronise the best. :
- .There must grow up in a valley so rich as that
through which this road passes a good local trade,
and in the ore banks at Cornwall there is the source
Of el business.' The necessityto mix' those
ores 'vtith others of. a different quality, to seoure
good railroad iron, will lead to a considerable de-
mend, and as the Iron produced in the valley of
the Schuylkill can be improved, so will the coal
_trade of the Reading, railroad be inereased. The
Lebanon road will also townie thoavenuo for sup
plying Philadelphia with' the soft coal of the Sus
quehanna, and probably be the means of trans
porting bturaincaureoal to the iron works of the
Rbuyikill as well as to the city of Philadelphia.
Its favorable grades cannot fait to secure for it a
fair shire of the transportation of all heavy arti
'Oles of
,merohatidiso to and from the Cumberland
and 'Susquehanna valleys. 'The coat of the road
has exceeded 'the original:estimates, but it has
been 'built with the view of cheep maintenance,
and there is part of one , bridge only that is built
of wood on the whole line.
HA!
Oh1W!
..ttrour opinion, and we have lately been over
the ground, there is no exaggeration in this
statement. The county of Lebanon, albeit
hot largo in extent, is affluent in minerals,
and has agricultural resources, which require
only to be developed with remarkable success.
This extension of Railroad communication
must operate- most favorably for the 'nimbi
tXtits of--the Valley of Lebanon. Their
thriving town, *midway between Reading and
Hanisbnig, is likely to • benefit • most largely.
The general trade of the place is good, but
the peculiar feature of the Valley is its mine
ral-wealth; No. description can convey an
adeqUate idei of the peculiarity of. the Corn
wall ore banks. •
-We can well understand the surprise—almost
the dismay—with which one of the most c ele
brated‘English geologists viewed the moun
tains of ore (Iron and copphr) which' met his
view at. Cornwall. He bad been accustomed,
in the iron fields of Staffordshire and Lanark-
Mire, to 'find iron ore lying down pretty deep
1n the earth, covered oVerwith particularstrata.
He-bid been .used to an 'mention's expendi
ture, to take :the ore from -the bowels of the
tearth. - Re had been tonsillar with iron mines,
:brit as to iron deposits, standing before bins in
the , 'form of a chain of mountains, the soil of
`which was iron ore, and nothing but iron ore,
-he' wag thoroughly confounded. Everything
; before him was so-entirely at variance with all
his preconceived ideas, that he was lost in a
)haze, and feeling' that there were more things
'in the world than his philosophy had dreamed,
'reluctantly admitted that his books were all at
' fault; that the scientific theories, which had
heeis deduced from practical experience in the
014 World, were wholly sot at defiance in
;Cornwall; in a word, that In this, as In other
things, "%Medea had a way of hex own.'
There is nothing remarkable to outward
in 'the ore-mountains of Cornwall,
iLebanon county. They are elevations,
,Coveted. with thin growth of pines. You
behold laborers digging out the soil, and
;throning it into wagons, which convey it to
'the Cornwell:Anthracite Furnaces, where it
is tentaddiately thrown into the furnaces, with
ilimesiMui found in the neighborhood, and
:.whor p it yields. seventy-five per cent, of
t,e6d Pig hon."! Indeexi, such, of„lt,ati la made

which ' has . the repute' of be.

bills a continual transfer of The ore has been
made, but the Working of nearly a, century has

DEVIANT SPEECH OF BRIGHAM YOUNG.
Oar advieea, from great Salt Lake City, by the
way of San Francisco, aro to the 3d of November.
The proposition to declare Brigham Young "Pro
phet, Seer, and Revelator" of the Mormon people,
1163 suitained unanimously in the Tabernacle.
The Deseret Arms of November I says : The
company from Carson began' to' artive on,the lot
inst., and will probably all be in by the 3d. This
mompany, with a few okeeptions, embrace all who
were sent on foreign missions to that region; also,
several from California and Oregon.'
The Netos, referring vaguely to the burning of
the Government wagons by the Mormons, says :
"For these reasons our brethren have as yet been
restrained from harming those officers and soldiers,
else the late battle between the eoldter., and a
prairie fire, whieb General Harney may record as
his one hundred' and sixth, would have boon the
prsliffie to their surrender or being wiped out."
- In reference to the Mormon prisoners taken by
Col. Alexander, Brighani, in an address to the Ta•
bernaole, holds the following language:
"Did he not granny it oil admirably about the
prisoners when ho wrote? I need not assure you
that not a hair of their heads will be hurt. Ile
dare not hurt them; neither has he th'e first par
ticle of reason for hurting them. Ile has released
and sent in the younger brotber with an express.
under the alleged consideration of his having a
wife and three children entirely dependent upon
hint., I wonder that the Colonel had net a young ,
officer to send with him."
We subjoin full partieulars of the news.

STAIRS. .
[From the Les Angeles Btar Biers, Deo. 8 j
Mr. Bell, with whom we have had a conversa
tion, informs us that ho left Salt Lake City on the
Stir November; and - after two days' travelling,
short stages, encamped for a day or two. While
encamped, an, express arrived from the city, who
informed them that Col - Johnston had arrived at
ROM ' S Fork, and taken the command—that
com
munioetioae, short but expressive, bad passed be
tween'the Col. and Gov. Young; the result of which
was, that Col. Johnston ordered his command to be
ready next morning for an advance' on Salt Lake
City, where he intended to Winter. Ham's Pork is
about a hundred miles from the city. The Mor
mons were stationed at Nebo cam '
about -fifty
miles from the city, through which the troops
must pass. A collision, therefore, wee inevitable
as the Mormons wore in great numbers, and wore
being rapidly reinforced. A Womb of two or
three days would bring the troops In front of their
opponents.
The rumor ive alluded to in our last, respecting
the burning of a number of wagons, has been con
firmed by Mr. Bell. The wagons were the pro
perty of the Government contractors, end seventy
tux of them were burned. A body of armed
Mounted mon canoe at night to the camp, told the
Wagon-master what they intended to do, gave him
time to awake his men and remove their baggage
and bedding, told hifit to select a wagon to take his
party back to the States, which he did, and they
then set fire to the whole train, burning up seven
ty-six wagons: "The cattle were driven into Salt
Lake City.
With regard to the Indians east of Salt Lake, it
is more than probable thenCel. Johnston hen pre ,
pitlated them; and they will be found, if not on
the side of the Government, at least neutral.
In case of resistance to the troops, there is every
reason for confidence that Colonel Johnston will
fore° the passage of the carton, and make good his
advance to the city:
The force of the Mormons has been greatly over
estimated ; almost every available man has been
enrolled. Inpassing through the settlements,
Mr. Belt found that the mon generally had been
called out to the mountains ; and yet the whole
force fell far short of 10,000 men.
• The winter has set in with severity. In the city
the snow was two inches deep;and in' the tnoun
tains, where the Mormons were encamped, it must
have been from six to twelve inches deep.
The Mormon army was in a very poor condition,
badly clothed, poorly armed, and with very little
provisions.
Tho families are represented as being in a suffer
ing condition—wanting in provisions and wood;
the winter already commenced and the men all
called off to the camp.
.1 Mr. Bell's company had passports from Governor
Young, but were only asked for them once. It
seemed as if intelligence bad been sent ahead of
them, and all know of their journey to California
but at ono station.
Nevertheless, it was. necessary, at each 'Settle
tient, to call on the bishop, hire an interpreter,
and send them ahead of the company to treat
with the Whine for theirititaß . repro
=Molt; and ` Zor B4 o particularly by pia
panditaare of over two thousand denim among
Whops, interpreters, and Indlanu f the company
succeeded In making their way in safety.
' We have confirmation of the report that was
circulated at the time, regarding thecompany that
was massacred some time since, that they suffered
at the hands of the Indians, in revenge for crimi
nal indiscretions on the part of certain of their
members. Small bags containing poison were
found in springs, the waters of which caused
sickness and death among the Indians. They
mustered their forces, followed and massacred the
whole party.
The Mormons who recently left Ban Berner
dino for Salt Lake wore met by Mr. Bell's com
pany beyond the Mojave. The train was moving
along. There was no encampment on the Mojave
as had been reported here the past two or three
days.
Messrs. Kincaid & Co., and Gilbert & Grolish,
sold out their entire stock of goods to The Mormons
at the prices offered by the authorities. They were
told the,people wanted them, and they bad bettor
take what they could get, or abide the result.
Mr. Bell was enrolled in the army of defence,
but, on being informed of it, declined, of course.
the intended honor. Ifs, therefore, left the Terri
tory. The company arrived in good health.
DEFIANT SPEECH OF BRIOHAU YOUNG
On the Bth of October Brigham Young delivered
a speech in the Tabernacle In relation to the ad
vance of the United States Crops into the Terri
tory. He said :
I purpose to have road to you this morning some
of the communications that have passed between
our enemies and ourselves, for the people are anx
ious to know the feelings of the two parties—they
are very anxious to learn the news. lam perfect
ly willing that they should know all, for ray feel
ings and yours are very different from those of the
world. You are aware that among the nations,
the !soldiers are never permitted to know anything
about the plans of the officers; statesmen withhold
from their constituents every polloy they possibly
cars, and the etatementof ono of them is very true
pertaining to their use of the English language,
that is, to smote Ideas instead of revealing
them.
If the Government of the United States have
sent soldiers to this Territory, I do not know it,
for I have had no offioial notice of each a ciroum
stance, and you will perceive that I treat them
accordingly. If they are sent by Government,
they are Bent expressly to destroy this people;
and if they are not sent by the Government, they
have come expressly to destroy this people; there
fore, I shall treat them, as I have informed the
officer In oonintand, Me sante as though they were
an avowed mob--not as I would those who havo
heretofore mobbed us, but as parties who have
come to mob us now.
I have informed Col. Alexander that, had his
command been the men who have heretofore
mobbed US, and the lying scribblers who have all
the day long been trying to incite mobs against
us, they never would have seen the South Pam.
We have sought for peaoe all the day long, and I
have sought for priee with the army now on your
borders, and have warned them that we all most
firmly believe that they are sent hero solely with
a view to destroy this people, though they may bo
ignorant of that fact. And though we may be
lieve that they are sent by the Government of the
United States, yet I, as Governor of thin Territory,
have no business to know any such thing until I
am notified by proper guthority at Washington.
I have a right to tree). them as a mob, just as
though they had been raised and of In Mis
souri, and sent hero expressly to destroy this pee
pie. We have been very moroiful and very lenient to
them. As I informed them in my uneffieial letter,
had they boon those mobocrats who mobbed us In
Missouri, they never would have' seen the South
Pass, We 'had plenty of boys on hand, and the
mode of warfare they would have mot with they
'are not acquainted with.
I would just as soon tell them as to toll you of
my mode of warfare. As the Lord God lives we
will waste our enemies by millions If they send
them hero to destroy no, and not a man of us be
'hurt. That is the method I intend to pursue, TM
you want to know what Is going to be done with
the enemies now on our borders? If they come
here, I will tell you what will be done. As soon
as they start to come into our settlements lot
sleep depart from their eyes and slumber from
their eyelids, ontil they sleep in death, for they
have been warned and forewarned that we will
not tamely submit to being destroyed. Men shall
be Bearded here and there, and shall waste away
our enemies in the name of Israel's God.
Cot. Alexander complains of our suede of war
fare. They have two or more Sold batteries of ar
tillery with them, and they want us to form a line
of battle in an open plain and give them a fair
chime° to sheet us. I did not tell the colonel what
I thought, but if he had a spark of sense he must
be a fool to think that we will ever do any such
thing. lam going to observe the old maxim:
"Ile that fights and runs awIJ,
Liven to fight another day.'
Should our enemies venture upon violent mea
sures, I design to so manage affairs that none of
our boys will be killed, and in my answer to the
colonel I have told him pretty plainly what we
shall do under certain contingencies.
The boys report their order of march to be, the
Tenth Infantry in front, the baggage in the cen
tre, the 'Fifth Infantry in the roar, and several
flanking companies travelling through the brush
as best they can. Don't you .think they, would
look well coming remit the United States in that
way? That is the way in which they ware travel
ling at our last advioes, and It was said that their
&W. -guard declared they would not watch.
'lf the soldiers knew the facts in the case ak do
their officers, they would probably nearly all bsave
the army; but the officers keep the soldiers in the
dark. Tile last report is, that the officers had
been telling the men that I bad "written a very
favorable letterto Col. Alexander and that they
were intending to come in.
When I thiiikiare they in your houses? are they
in your fields? - can answer, no, they are In the
mountains, thy are in the cold and snow; and If
ttn4innitlntiejaa those Moen appear to intend to,
upon the side of despotism and molveraoy, they
Justly ought to be served as we would MVO all
mobocrats. But we are here, and we are free, as
Br. Kimball has acid, just as free, in one son
we ever shall be.
Colonel Alexander proaebee to one a, littl.
tine in his letter, "I warn you that the bi ,
in this contest will be upon Our head ;I'. bit
warning gave me no thought, But if the bi.
those soldiers is shed, it will be upon the he
their °Moors,
What they will do I neither know nor earl,
will bo just as the Lord Goil wills it. If
that we need their substance, Ile will turn t
to that end ; and if Ile designs theta to be
out, lle will either cause them to underto
come here, or will' overrule some. other pl •
accomplish that end.
Another year, I am going to prepare fo
worst, and I want you to prepare to each
grain and . lari roasts this Territory, for I a.
termined, if driven • to that extremity, th
enemies shall find nothing but hem* of ash
ruins. We willbe so prepared that in a few
all con be consumed. I shall request the bi
to see that the people in their wards are pro
with two or three years' provisions. Th.
enough already raised in many places this
to supply the people from two to threoyearsi
them to take core of it, thologh Teepee
in all probability we will raise a great many
before our enemies again some here to dieter
and r expect, that we are fully abet , to defend
selves, and that our enemies will not be ab
come within a hundred mites of es. I know
ten mon, ouch ma could name and aeleot,
stop them before they got to Larentio.• • And i
bad seen fit to have sent suoh mon this se
they alone could very easily hots4toppe ,
CDOMIOA that they never would have got tb
the Black Mils. I count Ave such men eq
twenty-five thousand, and believe that two of
could put ton thousand to fight. i belle
are now whore that could be dose: , I will
five or ten snob as I oan name, an if two cant,'
ten thousand to flight, I am sure that tan are per.'
featly able to do it. .
Our enemies, in the last treaty they made sath
us, should have stipulated that we should bbto
gone only a short distance, solhat we would det
be at •
of their smash. They had better have rnsyde
thatetipulation, but they did not haste , wisdonsobt•
they would have stopped us from going so tar
away. They drove us away from their society
and allowed us to travel so far over the sage pledge;
that it is impossible for an army to bringprovisides
enough to last them here.
I have boon told that the first artillerycompa*,
upon its arrival at Laramie, loaded hp. tin 'O4
grain they could haul to feed theft' mule teaktr,.

trains and when they readied the Devil's Gate they,

Green River; and the more men they send'thet
more there are to eat up what the 'mule and ex
'trains haul, and the consequence' is that the
more men they send the worse it is all the time. •
If they undertake to send fifty thentand men to'
Utah, I venture to say that they cannot raise•so
largo a company in the United htates but what_
would cut each other's throats befordthey fro- .

They would be cursing, damning, and howling all

the mountains, can spoil their march before they
could get here.
'minion! DETERMINATION TO LAY WASTN'TREILL
13132=2
(From the Deseret News, Oct 14,]
And n do our enemies foolishly imagine', that the
Saints will deny their faith, forego the rights
guaranteid by our common Constitution and avail
just human law, and tamely suffer themselves to
be tyrannized over forever? One Might easily
suppose that the prompt vacating and burning
our own property would demonstrate that we have
told them the truth, and that there are principles
which we prize far higher than we do those perish•
able things which they have sot their hearts mum.
If they can take a hint, they may now be satisfied
that wo era not going to be again rode over by
mobs, that we hive not been fooling in this mat
ter, and, aa President Buchanan was plainly in ,
formed, that we will not again suffer mob pcoip
drain, as some have been, io again be put In au-
thority over us, for that was all the objection
made in the "Memorial and Resolutions " that II
high officer in our Government said " breathed a
defiant spirit," anti we defy him to find aught-a:1
defiance therein, except to black-hearted *outgo ,
Lion.
If the officers and troops so uselessly, unjustly,
and illegally ordered to Utah, eat' now take the
hint and are ready to go back, ceasing, as they
should, to aid corrupt demagogues and speculators
in tyrannising over American °Wrens, they will re.
ocive every requisite assistance to enable them to
return to whore they more , properly belong sod to
where their services may soon be really needed.

and acted upon, they kayo already seen a 11(116. Of

late battle between tbe,soldiets and the prairie

killed the prophets, driven women and children,

in the dead of winter, and those who have exulted
in such fiendish conduct, with Stephen A. Douglas
at their head, and they would long ago have been

INTERESTING FROM NICARAGUA.
Capture •f the Filibuster Force under Colonel
Auderson by the Susquehanna.
[Correspondence of (ho New York Daily Thies
Aeirvg ♦4L, Monday, Jan. 4. 1858
The most important none I hare to communicate
by this mail is the capture by Captain Sands, of
the United States steam-frigate Susqechanna, of
the balance of the filibuster force under Colonel
Anderson, and tho'r arrival on the 30th ult., at
this port in tat United States wor.steatner Fulton,
Captain Almy. This was the party whiob ascended
the Colorado into the San Juan river, and took
possession of Fort Castillo. Captain Sande, in the
capture of this force, went to a still further ex
treme than did Commodore Paulding in landing on
Punta Arenas. lie amended the river San Juan
into the interior of a foreign nation.
I will give you the feats an I have them from a
high official source. Nicaragua and Costa Rica,
in view of their common danger, it is presumed,
came to en understanding on their differences, and
sent four hundred men to San Carlos, at the en•
trance to the Lake, and one hundred to Castillo.
Anderson, finding himself closely pressed, and
likely to be more so, his stores being short, prepared
the steamer Ogden, embarked his men on her, and
then wrote to Captain Sands, asking his views
in regard to his surrender. Captain Sands re
plied that ho was ready to receive him and
his men if they came and delivered up their
arms. Subsequently, Anderson spiked his cannon,
'Aimed all the buildings about Castilla, destroyed
the machinery of a steamer at the Rapids, under•
stood to be the Virgin, and having killed all the
cattle and plundered all the merchandise within
reach, started down the river. Captain Sands came
upon them under these circumstances, nine miles
up the river, in the steamer Charles Morgan, fall
°farmed mefirand captured, them without any re
sistance, of course. The Ogden was p;p,oed In
charge of Mr. Cotterell, United States consul at
Oreytown, who has also charge of the Charles
Morgan, until the rightful ownership In them is
shown.
Capt. Sands thinks there is a little irregularity
in the extreme measures he took, but as he was
sent out to break up the filibusters, he thought
this course the shortest, and the ono likely to
save trouble and suffering on all elder. He, like
his Commodore, will doubtless be sustained by the
hottest publio sentiment of the country, and they
do not look for nor wish the approval of any
other. nesidelsoit will be sustained by the Pres!•
dent, if Ire is sleoltre in the very proper language
he used in his message to Congress, and we have
no right to charge that ho Is not, eftor the prompt
course he took in the removal of the New Orleans
judge, and his suspension of Capt. Chatard from
his command.
The filibusters have been transferred from the
Fulton to the Wabash,. and the latter vessel sails
with them to-day for tho United States, calling In
at Boca del Toro and reytown. Some twelve or
fourteen of them aro sick from fever.
'rho Fulton will remain in this port for the
present. She has twenty-five men on her sick list,
principally her working mon, whom services she
could scarcely do without at coo, and this is the
main reason why she, instead of the Wabash, does
not take home the filibusters Daring the greater
part of the time that the Fulton has boon on this
coast the rains have been very heavy, and the
mon much exposed. At one time Captain Almy
laid night days off the month of the Colorado, the
rain falling two.thirds of the time in torronta.
Colonel Anderson explains the matter of break
ing the machinery of a steamer in this way : lie
says he unscrewed the oylindor hand, pnokod it
into a box, and took it into the woods and hid it,
en that the "enemy" could not nee the steamer, as
he expected Walker might be able to return, and
would want her himself.
STATINENT OF DR. RANI.RY, ONZ OF Tll4 Ot'FICERS
We landed on the 24th November at the mouth
of the Colorado river, with forty men and five Mil
cars, under oommand of Col. Anderson. Wo pro
ceeded up the river to take possession of Loaf's
island, and for the purpose of cutting off commu
nication on the Ban Juan river. Wo worked our
way up in common four-oaretWats against a three
mile current. It was hard pulling, and took us
twenty-four hours, without sleeping, to make
twenty-four miles. We rowed all night, and land
ed early next morning In the surf. We left Leafs
island for Fort Castillo on the 29th, by order of
Gen. Walker, to get the steamer, if possible, and
take possession of the fort.
We landed ono mile below Fort Castillo, at 8
o'clock on the night of the 3d of December. After
cutting our way through the ehapperal at the side
of the river, we gained the open clearing around
the fort at 11 o'clock that night. We rested until
one o'clock next morning, December 4th, when we
attacked the fort, and, after killing ono man, took
it by surprise. We captured six pieces of cannon,
with one hundred and fifty stand of arms, and
made prisoners of Colonel Francisco Alderado and
eighty men under his command. We also got sms
amnion of three steamers. On the Bth we sent up
the steamer Ogden and captured the steamer Vir
gin, nine miles above, at Terre Rapids.
On the 6th we started the steamer Morgan down
to General Walker, with prisoners taken from the
steamer Virgin and the fort.
We heard no more from down the river until
December 18, when we were Informed by a Colonel
Rodgers of the arrest of General Walker and his
men, aid their return to the United States. After
the receipt of this intelligence we burned the fort,
spiked the cannons, and shipped on board the Og
den all the available property, cattle, ,to., and left
Castillo on the 20th to go dome the river. We
stopped nine miles above Oraytowni on the San
Juan river, where we were vinited Drcem er 2lth
by Captain Joshua It. Rand.. At II o'clock a
man.of.war %oat under his command with a forte
of marines, from the United States frigate Siartus
lutnnuh, pot off from the Member Morgan. When
about three hundred yards off, he commenced
bowing Very politely: When Captain Sands an.
preached us, he asked " who was our oorninandor?"
Colonel Anderson answered was." After
which Captain S. replied, "Will you come on
board, air?" Colonel Anderson went on board of
the Mervin alone, was asked on the upper deck ,
and, in the pretense of throe of his ofteers, the
followingdialoguo took place :
Capt. S. Well, how are you getting along up
here "I
Col. A. Very well.
Capt. 8. I've come up to take you.
Coo. A. Hare you orders from Colmmodore
Paulding
Capt. 8. No, sir; I've orders direolly from the
Department.
Col. A. I think I am out of your Juriedietion.
Capt. 8. ionuld take you in Klizachetka.
Col. A. Welt. sly. I zurpooo I will base to go.
c.pt. 8. Yes; call your man on board.
Cot. A. You bad bettOr go on board end toll

Capt. B. I will. Will yougo In my boat ?
Col. A. No, I thank you ; I will go in my own
boat

Not only these men, but also parties who base

By the arrival at New Orleans of the brig
Minatitlnn, from Camposchy, in Yucatan, we bare
received a tile of the Bolain to the 24th ult., but
we find little to notice. Barrera, who several
mouths ago initiated the revolution which has in
some measure made him Cormier of Yueatan, has
not yet succeeded in quelling the opposition to him
in the district of Campeachy. From other parts
of the State there is no Intelligence. The ilderin
Bays that for nearly three months the town of
Campoachy has suffered a horrible siege (Bias hor
roroso), and that there was no infamy nor atrocity
that the barbarous soldiers who attacked the place
had not committed in the country roundabout;
and all according to the orders of their leaders.
It appears, however, that the siege was not so very
terrible to the town itself; for, notwithstanding
that its ordinary population bad been doubled by
the concentration within its walls of the adjacent
inhabitants, there was no lank of provisions. In
feet, says the Baran, "while the besiegers have
to breakfast on grapes and nuts, the besieged,
thanks to God, have suf fi cient for their necessities,
and a surplus wherewith to succor their miserable
enemies.'
A building in the course of erection, in Bal
timore, fell on Wednesday, burying four workmen
In the rains. James Dixon, carpenter, was the
first taken out. He was found lying across a joist
with another upon him, and so intricate was his
position that It took two men to remove him. He
was found to be horribly injured, his foes being
mashed in at the nese so as to leave hardly a trace
of the features. His right arm was also broken,
and en eye turned inside out in its sooket. Ile
never spoke, and died in about half an hour. Pe

knew nothing about ; don't kw* that he made any
cnisstelatisents in the hat.; didn't know about
the facts; i judge from the Mate of his mind and
hie notions that be didn't know what he was talk

man ; I theughlhe was mazy, because I thought
he didn't know what he was talking about; I
thought the appearance and conduct of the scum
was slush that he didn't know what he wanted to
set it at the time; be told me be wanted to gat a
divorce; don't know how he could tall that if he
didn't know It.
Win. Parma, sworn.—lify planet badness is la
Walnut street, below Fourth; I know the defen
dant for about three years, probably; I saw him
frequently during that time; I alsrayejudged his
disposition to be eery good ; I last saw him before
this occurred on Monday, in oar war/loom; I no
ticed something peculiar about Dim, in his eounbe
maned; I had always regarded Smith as an inter.
eating young man; appeared to be very polite and
intelligent, so much so, that I took a
_pleasure in
:onyersing with him ; tnt this occasion be was :very
different ; he new in eotretsation from one thing to
another; I never observed that before; lie eyes
appeared very rootless end w ild ; he would ;bang*
hie position constantly; jump up and brush
his hair and seem agitated; this wee In the after
noon ; I can't say how long he wee there; I can't
recollect exactly the time; I'm not very good at
recollecting dates, numbers, or names; his condi
tion was about tke same a few days before as it
was then; either on that day, or the time before.
he told me about being down In Virginia; he told
me of the manners and customs of some of the
people there, that I thought differed from any
thing I had ever heard before; and about his har
ing rode a great distance on horseback; he said hs
had rode some 1,309 or 1,400 miles, till his bone
dropped under him.
Q. Whet is your opinion of his mind, founded
upon what you then and there sew
A. I think be was of unsound mind; when I
saw him I had not heard of any of his digit:tallier.
Cross-examined.—Be told me of persons tiring
in Virginia as squatters; said they Iliad red there
In huts, and that they knew nothing beyond them
selves; that they were perfectly happy and would
mot give up their possessions; I thought this very
strange, yet I don't doubt the truth et . it; it was
his manner that Impressed me.
Marcus A. Davis, sworn.—l am acaldnet-maker
—of 339 Walnut street; I know the defendant;
made his aequaintanee in the latter part of ISIS;
I have frequently seen him since; I saw him in
October last—in our store ; I obecrved a change is
him in the first part of October; it struck me more
efterwards; I saw him at least three times in the
latter pert of the month of October; the last time
I saw him, previous to this occurrence, was on
the tame day of the catastrophe; in the aftekmoon
about half ,past. four o'clock, about that; I am
perr...tlyswest sa to that; lem pnattlte of it it
nes'at my store; hit appearance was very unlike
what it had bees before; I was Musk by kis
; the whole man appeased to hotline's*,
hie conversation, acts, looks; be came in and asked
ratve.or a wardrobe ; I told him the price.
end ho asked me how !Mich I would take Oat
rash; he then Weed would let him bare the
warirobe at my price at six months ; I told him
" No," we never sold on six menthe credit to any
one; he turned rand and priced another ward
robe; I told him the price of it, and he also made
me an offer for that in rash, which I refused; I
refused both offers, being too low in price; we had
Some conversation in regard to it which was very
wild, and ho then turned off to politics; he was
walking up end down thesture continually, taking
his hat off and puttini; it over his eyes, and run-
Mug his hand through his hair; I took' notice of
his eyes rolling round and glistening ; ha buttoned
and nobs ttoned his coat; eould'nt stand still a
moment: I never saw this appearance about him
before; his manner of conversation was quick,
eying from one subject to another; In my opinion
I here no hesitancy in saying that he was insane
at that time; he was one of his mind.
Croos•examined —This was about half past 4
o'clock ; the interview continued from five to ten
minutes; be appeared to be on the fidgets; he went
out very abruptly, not at all as heretobre; be
made me an offer for a wardrobe which 1 would
not accept; he offered $2O for a wardrobe; I asked
him SV. for it; he said he wanted a wardrobe to
keep a new suit of clothes in ; that the place he oc
cupied there had no place to keep his clothes; I
thought it was strange he should want to buy on
time ; I only knew him Ina basinesa point of view;
know nothing of his whereabouts; the wardrobes
were 515 and $2B each ; he offered to take either
on six months time ; I told him we didn't sell in
that way ; I didn't want to sell Mm; I saw the
man had something strange about him. and I didn't
want to sell him; if be had paid $23 in cash for
the best one I would have sold it •; I could not re
fuse any one to take the price I linked for an ar
ticle. .
Re-extunined.—l would not have fallen Crummy
trice one dollar on account of his condition.
Re crosoexamined.—lf I had sold it on credit, I
would not have delivered it till I saw him again ;
I don't think the interview lasted over ten min
utea , be asked for nothing but the wardrobe;
when we had got done with the wardrobe he
broached the subject of politics; he finally got to
cursing and swearing over politics; he had so
licited our advertisement in the Reriew; it was
under our consideration at, that time; he has done
advertising for us in other papers; I was about
calling the porter to shut up the basement when
he came In; that's how I fixed the time; I am
positive it was the 4th November; it's so entered
in my book.
Re-examined by Mr. Brown.—When he broach
ed politics be cursed and swore; he was speaking
in' regard to Kansas; damning MI way they
had done things, and cussinz the Adminssirs
lion ; this was an element Shia helped me to form
my opinion of insanity.
James K. Robinson, sworn.—Am bar-keeper at
the Madison House; first saw Smith the 20th of
October; never saw him before; be came to the
Madison House to board, and remained there till
this occurrence; noticed something peculiar about
him after be was there a day or two; Observed
that his actions were singular ; his movements
about the room; his appearance; seemed to be
restless; moving about the room; did not sit
or etand long in one place; his conduct smelted
the remarks of persons at the house after he had
been there some days; his appearenee was rather
wild; singtiler ; after he had been there three or
four days he sail he was unable to sleep ; be came
down one evening about half-past eleven; asked
ins If I had anything that would make him sleep;
I told him I had some paregoric and I gave him a
dose of that ; ho said he thought he was watched,
by whom I don't recollect; I think after that
time he Rid he thought Mr. Carter had some
body In town watching him;
I recollected his
asking me who such and such a person
in the room was; I think the gentleman
was a boarder in the house ; told him I thought he
woe tinder a mistake, the man woe not watching
him at all; he still kept looking at the man; be at
one time requested me to go with him to the Wal
nut-street Theatre; he said he thought there would
be some one there to watch him, and be wanted
me to take care of him; he appeared to apprehend
danger from these persons; ho appeared to be
alarmed ; this was the Saturday evening before the
occurrence; I stew him very frequently while
there; I thought he was partly deranged; that
opinion is founded on what I saw of him, and what
.1 heard him say in these interviews.
Cross-examined by Mr. Mann.—l thought his
thinking be was watched was Imagination; I be
lieve that was a delusion on his mind, that it had
no foundation in fact; his very wild appearance
also leads me to believe he was partially deranged;
his eyes. were very wild and glaring; had a differ
ent appearance from anything I had ever seen be
fore; don't know that he imagined anything else
